Project Details
Description
On January 30th 2024, the European Commission launches the SCUALE project, coordinated by Thales, and brings together 14 industry players and research institute from 8 European countries.
Supported by the Agence de l'innovation de défense, SCUALE (Sustainable Components for Underwater Acoustics using Lead-free materials in Europe) project aims to study, develop and produce advanced lead-free materials and components with improved performance to replace existing piezoelectric ceramics for military underwater acoustics applications.
The overarching goal of SCUALE project is to initiate the establishment of at least one European supply chain of lead-free piezoelectric materials that are suitable for underwater acoustics military applications.
